A blog about Cowboy Music, Western Swing and Cowboy Poetry. 2014 WMA Radio DJ/Radio Program of the Year

This band and this CD mean so much to me and bring back so many memories! I spent a great deal of my life in the Bootheel of New Mexico in my growing up years. The high light of the month was the country dance, held either at the Animas American Legion Hall or the old Hachita School Gym. One of my favorite bands at that time was Forrest Delk and The Gulley Jumpers! Well, the music goes on in the 2nd and 3rd generations of Delks. For the last many years, Joe, Mark, Neal and Bryon Delk have carried on the family legacy…and done it well! “Music For Those That Come To Dance” has 17 cuts and you’ll want to dance to each and every one of them! From “Corrina, Corrina” to “Because He Lives” there is not one song you won’t love!

I love Western Music, both Cowboy Music and Western Swing AND Cowboy Poetry. To help keep this music and poetry alive, I host a 2 hour, weekly radio show - "The Real West from the Old West" - on AM 1230 KOTS in Deming, NM. That radio show and this blog are my contribution to the genre! I hope you enjoy both!
